Filmmaker Sarah Domogala explores how a cleaner, more practical fashion style reflects the lives of contemporary women. Through conversations in Amsterdam, Paris, London and New York, the film examines clothing as a way to express work, family, beauty and individuality.
A poetic reflection on women, fashion, and contemporary identity
It's in the Sky begins with filmmaker Sarah Domogala looking at her own reflection and recognising a change in the way she dresses. Once drawn to noticeable outfits with a touch of colour, she now finds herself choosing more minimalist, sober and layered clothes. This personal observation becomes the starting point for a wider exploration of fashion, identity and the daily lives of women in the Western world.
In a time when women often balance career, family, beauty standards and personal aspirations, a new fashion style appears to respond to their busy lives with cleaner, more practical forms. Domogala uses the image of birds moving together in the sky as a poetic analogy for the way contemporary women search for individuality within broader social and fashion trends.
Through interviews in working spaces, cafés and street corners in Amsterdam, Paris, London and New York, the documentary examines how clothing connects with the way women live, work and present themselves. Fashion becomes more than a beautiful dress. It becomes a language through which mothers, professionals, lovers and dreamers express the complex energy of modern life.
